Scarborough Beach Road is an arterial northwest-southeast road located in the inner northern suburbs of Perth, Western Australia. It is mostly a single carriageway road, with two or three lanes in each direction.

It was built to offer access to the Osborne Park agricultural and market gardening area and Scarborough Beach in the early 20th century. It was originally a plank road. In the 1950s, prior to the development of shopping centres at Karrinyup and Innaloo, the Mount Hawthorn section of the road was a popular shopping area.

Since the development of the Osborne Park industrial area and the Innaloo commercial area in the 1960s, Scarborough Beach Road has become one of the major arterial roads in the northern suburbs. The Westfield Innaloo shopping centre, a large cinema and a tavern are located around the Odin Street/Liege Street/Ellen Stirling Boulevard triple-intersection, which also carries State Route 64 traffic between the Mitchell Freeway and the western suburbs. Axford Park, at the intersection of Oxford Street in Mount Hawthorn, is named in honour of World War I Victoria Cross recipient Thomas Axford.

The Stirling railway station is a short distance away while the Glendalough railway station, built in 1992, picks up passengers on the road underneath the Mitchell Freeway bridge. It is one of only two arterial roads between Perth and Joondalup (along with Beach Road) not to provide ramp access to the Mitchell Freeway to general traffic.
